If the first feeling that comes to your perception as you wake up is pain all over your back, or if it hurts even when you are lying down, the cause might not completely be your body condition, but the very mattress you're using. Therapy isn't a wise solution for long term, and neither is to replace the mattress, especially if it hasn't quite reached its longevity yet (you do not want to spend too much, right?). A mattress topper will be an effective and reasonably priced way of this situation, it can also extend the mattress' life for 2 or 3 years longer. This article will help know how to choose the best mattress topper for back pain. Why Do We Recommend Mattress Toppers? Body alignment: when your mattress is too soft, the back will sink too low when you lie down and lead to back pain. A suitable topper with favorable firmness will fix the problem. It provides your back with the much needed support and assures the spine doesn't suffer unnatural curvatures. Pressure … [Read more...]

My 7 Useful Tips for Using Slow Cooker
I have been using a slow cooker a lot more over the past year, and I really enjoy it. Slow cookers can be very helpful in allowing you to prepare a good meal even on an extra busy day. They are very energy efficient, too. I have learned several things about using slow cookers. Here are some tips: 1. Fill your slow cooker at least half full for the best cooking results. Food tends to overcook if the pot is less than half full. 2. You can use cheaper cuts of meat in a slow cooker. The slow, moist cooking method results in tender meat, even from tougher cuts. I’m not saying you can cook a brick in there, but it doesn’t have to be prime rib, either. 3. Remember that liquids do not “cook down” in a slow cooker, so don’t add too much liquid. 4. One hour on high equals 2 hours on low. You can use this tip to adjust your cooking time. For example, if I put a meal in the cooker at 11:00, and I want to have supper at 6:00, I have 7 hours of cooking time. If the recipe calls for 8 … [Read more...]
